Opportunities to secure one of Tasmania’s heritage properties are becoming increasingly rare. Harcourts are proud to present this restored and stunning Georgian residence and magnificent garden in the heart of the historic village of Carrick for your inspection.
One stroll around the lush gardens of this amazing Georgian house will captivate and inspire even the most discerning purchaser. Built during the early 1840′s on land subdivided from nearby “Entally”, this heritage listed four bedroom brick house abounds in original features which help to create the ambiance for which Tasmania’s historic houses are renown. High ceilings, large windows, open fire places, four panel doors with wide reveals and beautiful cedar fire surrounds are complemented by a sympathetic colour scheme and new carpets. Of simple Georgian design, the house has four main rooms and a central hall way on both the ground floor and second storey, with an elegant stair case and large window on the landing ensuring plenty of natural light inside.
Outside, the original stables and cart house help to form a gravelled courtyard which is perfect for entertaining family and friends. The garden, which has been regularly open as part of the Australian Open Garden Scheme, is full of glorious trees, shrubs, roses and perennials. Organised as a series of rooms connected by grassed paths, the garden is a private oasis designed to be a place for relaxation and contemplation. As you wander from the cottage style flower gardens to the more formal hedged pond garden, a birch tree lined path provides a shaded environment for woodland plants during the heat of summer and the perfect venue for spring bulbs and hellebores during late winter and spring. Regardless of the season there is always something to look at and enjoy in this inspiring garden.
Situated only ten minutes from the city of Launceston, this is an ideal property for people looking for a quiet village life but within easy commuting distance of the city.
